REPAVING MAIN ROADS

Repaving

The Division of Highway Services (DHS) periodically repaves main roads throughout the County. Repaving adds 1 1/2" to 2" of new asphalt to the existing road surface and generally follows the procedures listed below:

• Evaluate roadway condition
• Determine necessary repairs
• Mill (grind off) entire surface if necessary or
• Mill tie-ins along the curbs and at each intersection
• Adjust the utility covers to the new asphalt grade
• Pave a new asphalt overlay
• Re-stripe the traffic markings

Benefits of Repaving

• Improved traction, surface texture and appearance
• Improved smoothness and ride quality
• Waterproofed surface
• New wear layer to protect underlying pavement from traffic, weather and oxidation
• Extends life of dry, weathered surfaces
